Issue/Introduction
Permits in the same profile and only profile on the user:
Rule#1 --> DSN(ABC) ACCESS(NONE)
Rule#2 --> DSN(ABCD) ACCESS(UPDATE)
If the dataset name is ABCDEF which rule will be used if the requested access level is UPDATE?
Environment
Release:
Component: TSSMVS
Resolution
The more specific PERMIT will be used.
In the example you gave, the second PERMIT is more specific.
Rule#1 --> DSN(ABC) ACCESS(NONE)
Rule#2 --> DSN(ABCD) ACCESS(UPDATE)
ABCD is more specific than ABC.
